( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??
I realise I am stupid and shouldn't have been let loose on PERL in a million years but I need help!! Can anyone PLEASE help me with a hash sorting problem I am having?? I will be eternally grateful!!!!!!! I have successfully created a hash containing all the keys and values I want but wish to merely sort the keys into ascending numerical order. Am I doing something wrong with my hash assignment? I cannot quite see why it won't work See excerpt below
foreach $sentence(@sentences) { <BR> $total_sentence +=1; <BR> @words = split(/[^\w'a-zA-Z0-9_'-?]+/,$sentence); <BR> $Counter =0; <BR> foreach $word(@words){ <BR> $Counter+=1; <BR> } <BR> $sentence_count{($Counter)}=$sentence_count{($Counter)}+1;<BR> + } <BR> sort {$a<=>$b} (keys (%sentence_count)); <BR> print ("\nThere are a total of $total_sentence sentences in this text\ +n"); <BR> while (($sentence_count,$word_count) = each(%sentence_count)) { <BR> print ("\nThere are $sentence_count sentences of $word_count words +\n"); <BR> } <BR>

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
